void should bare simply the meaning of NOTYPE, as null for no value

so when i do in generics

class MyClass : MyBaseClass

{}

then i can check for typeof(T2) is void ?

do not try any dlls from the C# library and make it solely from F#, it is much efficient, faster and you will find it all. I will get back in touch with exact info soon , till then surf the MSDN.

MSIL doesn’t support instantiation of Func(bool,void); so I assume it doesn’t support void as a type-parameter at all.

“Void Structure
Specifies a return value type for a method that does not return a value.”

Nice oxymoron.
